Lucidity erupts from deep within
Obtundent calm born of chagrin
Emotions scattered, an acidic dust
Now splintered heart begins to rust
Choked of dreams he needs to breath
A broken man is on his knees

Emotions scattered, an acidic dust
Now splintered heart begins to rust
Choked of dreams he needs to breath

I wouldn't call it an attempt so much as a triumph.
With the gift of eloquence you have fitted right in.
Nice write

I'm sure you meant "breathe", but that is a minor detail. Anytime a writer can convey such a strong emotive response in so few words, is a success. I daresay your metaphorical (or actual) pen has been chomping at the bit for years! Look at that thing explode...Wonderful stuff. Don't stop now!
